At the end, Song fucks up on the ball, Arteta quickly in to clean up and keep possession. Everyone's doing their bit in an unspectacular fashion and that's the way it should be. It's a well balanced side and the proof is that we're getting results. This replacing Arteta talk is crazy; we've got a winning formula.
agree with all of that and with ramsey being so young and playing so regularly at the moment, he will have his average games, like today. cesc senior cant hold the blame for being compared to junior every game but he is a different player, with a solid game built from years under moyes. the front three are working well, the midfield is solid and defence more controlled for now and it'll keep us in the hunt for the 3/4.
